I'd like to see the boost kept separate and added during the calcualtions
that way  various algorythms could be used on the boost..
for example I'd like to see the boost exponentially reduced each 
clocktick encounterred in userspace
or maybe the boost could include a suggested lifetime..
e.g. "boost by 10% for 20mSec"
